Back in my Quake days we called it the (Quake) console. That said, they seem to be tempting fate by using "Quake" in the name and a logo very similar to Q1. Especially risky since they appear intent on selling it.
Windows terminal used the name quake mode for the similar functionality it offers and there of course the Yakuake that does the same on Linux. Haven't heard of anyone rattling the copyright chain about it yet.

My iPhone 13 almost overheated…
“Huh let’s what everyone talking about!” opens site, phone begins roasting “I don’t know what I expected.”
No comment on the app, but the website was not scrolling smoothly on my iPhone 15 Pro.

My iPhone, which has one of the most recent chips, is burning hot right now.
Glad to see this comment. Same happened to my iPhone and the website was laggy - was super confused at first..
It makes the notch bigger ? No thanks.
I have never heard the fans on my 2021 16" MBP until I opened this website. GPU usage spiked to 65% when opening the site in Firefox, enough to trigger the fan on this otherwise silent machine.
All 12 cores on my machine pegged. Sites like this should be studied.
Expectation: "Quake terminal" implies playing Quake, possibly in some Asciinema-type way. Maybe just starting the built-in Quake terminal without the game-play. Reality: a regular terminal that starts in the notch and expands to normal window. I guess it's somehow based on the terminal that was in Quake but that was only really used for issuing quake commands, not really for being a posix-compliant, VT-100 compatible…
I want to love this, but it's basically an aesthetic experience, and I have two and a half complaints that prevent me from loving it: 1) It needs an option to be the exact height of the menu bar when collapsed. On my system, it's ~4 pts taller then the menu bar, which means it intrudes into the chrome of maximized windows. Ewww. The goal is to reclaim wasted space, not take more! 2) It pretty consistently drops frame…
This is incredibly constructive feedback! When working on projects that meld digital and physical realities, ergonomics and aesthetics become a hyperfocus and observations like this are vital for course correcting.
